How should I attach the K-mount Adapter for 645 lenses?
You may not be able to attach K-mount Adapters for 645 lenses due to the direct contact with the locking screw. To attach the K-mount Adapter to the K-30 you will need to align in advance the position of the mount unit.
* After loosening the locking screw of the K-mount Adapter you can rotate the mount unit; click-stops are located at 90-degree intervals.

　Attaching the adapter:
　　1. Position the K-mount Adapter so the red dot mount index on the 35 mm side of the adapter is opposite the locking screw.
　　Attach the K-mount lens cap to the K-mount Adapter.
　　Loosen the locking screw, rotate the K-mount lens cap so the red dot mount index is on the opposite side and tighten the lock screw.
　　* Avoid holding the mount unit directly with your fingers.
　　2. Remove the K-mount lens cap from the K-mount Adapter and attach the adapter to the K-30.
　　3. After attaching the K-mount Adapter, the locking screw should be at the bottom. Loosen the locking screw, rotate the K-mount Adapter 90 degrees counter-clockwise and tighten the locking screw.
　　4. Mount the 645 lens to the K-mount Adapter.

　Removing the adapter:
　　1. To remove the K-mount Adapter loosen the locking screw and rotate the adapter so the locking screw is found at the bottom. Tighten the locking screw and then remove the K-mount Adapter.
　　* Set the lens to maximum aperture before focusing. When shooting a picture, set the desired aperture value. (Minimum aperture light metering)
　　* When the aperture ring of 645 lenses is set to the A position, the minimum aperture will be used.
　　* The lens shutter of 645 LS 75 mm, f/2.8 lenses and 645 LS 135 mm, f/4 lenses cannot be used.

The [Input Focal Length] function cannot be selected.

The [Input Focal Length] setting menu does not appear when using lenses that support the automatic acquisition of lens information such as focal length (for example DA, D FA, FA, F lenses) because [Focal Length] is set automatically.

None of the [Input Focal Length] setting options matches the focal length of the lens.

Use the closest setting to the actual focal length of the lens used.
(For example, select [18] for a 17 mm lens or [100] for a 105 mm lens.)

When built-in flash is used, exposure becomes overexposed.

The built-in flash cannot be regulated and fully discharges when A lenses not set to the A (Auto) position, pre A lenses or soft focus lenses are used with the [Using Aperture Ring] is set to [Permitted].

Is it possible to turn off the Guide Display on the LCD monitor?

Yes. To not show indication, set [Guide Display] to [Off] in the [Set-up] menu.
